If you share the commonly-held notions about the New Right, which typically associate it with a reactionary ideology of social and economic change, then you are in for a surprise: this study - the first to be carried out from the inside - shows that, at least so far as its young members are concerned, their core values rest upon a radical agenda that is explicitly internationalist, individualist, culturally relativist and secularist. After examining the social background and political psychology of the young Libertarians, the author comes to the conclusion that in adhering to a world view that has more to do with individualism - or "property-rights anarchism"- than any form of collectivist ideology, such as Fascism; they represent the antithesis of traditional Burkean thought. For, while Conservatives have historically adhered to the authority of religion, prescription, instinct and communitarianism, Libertarians place their faith in the authority of reality, reason, mankind and capitalism. As a school whose epistemology is reason,ethics - self-interest and politics - and anarcho-capitalism, they represent, so the author argues, an important post-modern paradigm shift in both Conservative thought and activism.
There is a growing sense that the "health gap" between socioeconomic groups is getting worse in many countries. To address this gap, conceptual clarity and empirical evidence are needed along with a greater focus on equity in policy-making. This book is designed to present cutting-edge research and policy analysis to a wide non-specialist readership of students, professionals and policy-makers. It brings together in one volume new perspectives on the conceptual foundations of health equity, empirical evidence on the scale and nature of he inequities in health in twelve countries around the world, and assessments of the associated policy developments and their implications for the future. It aims to help build global capacity to measure, monitor and interpret developments in health equity at a national and international level. The in-depth country analyses draw on epidemiology, demography, economics and other fields to approach health inequalities from several different angles. The topics covered range from adolescent livelihoods in Tanzania to the health burden of indigenous peoples in Mexico, from health equity in Japan to the gender gap in life expectancy in Russia. The book is a unique demonstration of global cooperation in bringing together and giving equal weight to work on health equity carried out in the southern and northern hemispheres.
Why KOINE? In the fullness of time, God fulfilled His promise to send His Son. What made two thousand years ago the right time? The KOINE Greek Language God's perfect design was to use KOINE Greek when it was the COMMON language of the world so that every nation could understand the Right-announcement. More than that, KOINE is such a precise language, that when studied, one finds, like knowledge the OT Hebrew, no need to be bound by the endless false dilemmas, empty arguments, and vain philosophies found among those that refuse any exodus from their "Egyptianity" into true Christianity. KOINE facilitates our desire to come out and be separated from them. In a culture dominated by conversational ecumenism-It speaks Calvin or Arminius: it's a virtual language of Ashdod- KOINE stands forever to equip God's out-called people to remain peculiar, uniquely His, in words and practice: To speak the language spoken by the martyrs throughout all the durations. KOINE will teach you the value of your New Testament in the original language; empower you to meet your responsibility to do your own word studies, in order that you might know exactly what God intended to communicate to you and others; and finally, demonstrate to you that the True and Living God did not leave you as an orphan, dependent upon the theological traditions, customs, creeds, and confessions of unnatural parentage.
